let me start with you, if i may, john. you went to cover the boston marathon for the local newspaper, "the boston globe" and it turned into the worst attack on american mainland since 9/11. tell me exactly what you saw and where you were. >> well, i was at the finish line. we were covering the runners coming over later after the elite runners came over. i was right at the finish line, right at the tape, and some runners were coming over and everybody was cheering, everybody was having a good time, and i was focused on a couple children coming over the finish line. and then the blast occurred, and everybody was just screaming. there was, you know, a loud blast. that runner who you are describing fell in front of me and then the boston police officers that were near him started drawing their guns. it was just a panic on people's faces and nobody knew exactly what was going on. i don't think at first people realized that it was a real explosion. >> from what you've seen, john, clearly at the moment, the death toll is only thr

john, what have you learned today? >> well, the big case today was whether to make the case to release that photo and go out and say "this is the person we're looking for" or to hold that back. and it's been a tough call. for investigators, there's always a difficult choice because if the person doesn't know you're looking for him, he may stay in place, you may catch up to him. if he does know you're looking for him, he may run. on the other hand, if you don't get him, it's always great to enlist 20 million or so more eyes in the public who may be able to give you a location right away. that's not going to happen tonight anymore. it was going to happen earlier, they've rethought that. it may happen with the release of that picture tomorrow. they're reassessing. >> pelley: we'll watch for it. john, thanks very much. 63 of the more than 170 people who were wounded are still in the hospital tonight. 12 of them are in critical condition. today, we learned the identity of the third person who died. lu lingzi from china was
